Rep. James Clyburn (D., S.C.) tells reporters that he has witnessed “shocking” behavior from tea-party protesters in Washington this weekend. After President Obama left the Capitol, he told a press cluster that “he has heard some things today” that he has not heard since he marched for civil rights decades ago.

“I have heard things today that I have not heard since March 15, 1960, when I was marching to get off the back of the bus,” he said. “It’s incredible.”

“Much of this, much of this, is not about health care at all,” he added. “It’s about trying to extend a basic, fundamental right to people who are less poweful.”
